		<description><![CDATA[AN INTERNATIONAL convention banning the use, production, transfer and stockpiling of cluster bombs, which was negotiated in Dublin in 2008, entered into force the first of this month.  You didn&#8217;t read about it or see it on the news because the American media didn&#8217;t tell you about it.
Why not?  Maybe the media considered this &#8220;news&#8221; [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Would the &#8216;Duke&#8217; have nuked the Japs?
My father was aboard a ship in the Pacific during WWII.  He was young and terrified.  My mother used to mention that he only weighed 95 lbs and had bleeding ulcers when he came home from the war.  I remember as a very young boy, watching him eat soda [...]]]></description>

		<title>I was just one pious decision away from oblivion!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I pursued genealogy thirty years ago when it was a laborious process of visiting libraries and writing letters.  These days the internet and sites like ancestry.com have changed all that and lately I&#8217;ve been discovering my roots at light speed &#8211; taking advantage of the work done by distant cousins whose &#8220;family trees&#8221; are instantly [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bowling balls, bat suits, and airbags prove 9/11 was an inside job!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Engineers, Architects and men with Phd&#8217;s in Physics have submitted peer reviewed papers that contradict the official conspiracy theory &#8211; 19 highjackers with box knives &#8211; but some folks are still not convinced.  I think perhaps it&#8217;s because their explanations are a bit too scientific for the average person to comprehend.  So let&#8217;s KISS it, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Pancake&#8230; Schmancake!

 
I am a conspiracy theorist!!  But so are you!!  As is anyone who has an opinion concerning what happened on 9/11.  I get tired of this phrase being used as a pejorative.  If the media wants to vilify a group it seems that all they have to do is give them a name [...]]]></description>

		<title>I&#8217;m posting again</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I haven&#8217;t posted anything to this blog for several months.  The reason?  Facebook&#8230; that inane watering hole where friends and family share drivel about their common ordinary existences.  Its only redeeming feature is shared photographs.  This week I enjoyed seeing a photo of my daughter&#8217;s fiance proposing to her.  And just a few months ago [...]]]></description>
